Dream Analysis:A key component in psychoanalysis which involves interpreting dreams to uncover unconscious desires or experiences. It’s like decoding a secret message that your mind sends you while you sleep.
Transference:This is when a person redirects feelings and desires unconsciously retained from childhood towards a new object - often their psychoanalyst. It's like having an old photograph and projecting it onto a blank canvas.
Resistance:In psychoanalysis, resistance is the patient's unconscious attempt to block revelations of repressed memories and conflicts. It’s like your mind building up walls to keep certain secrets hidden.
